Abstract
Inthis text, drawing from my participation as an actor in Juventude Inquieta[Restless Youth], thelatest of my collaborations with Teatro do Vestido, I begin by acknowledging the ethical implications of my personal experiencewithin the creative process. I then build on this reflection to further explorethe possible ways of looking at theatre projects, differentiating between onesthat are oriented exclusively towards scenic outcomes and ones that put inmotion a process of political engagement of the performers that transcendartistic results alone. I follow this proposal to foreground the importance of distinguishingbetween making theatre that resembles the politics we can only envision and atheatre that relates to another form of artistic circulation, in which thepractices of learning, self-discovery, and critical thinking are privilegedalongside the final stage performance.
